After saving a baby eagle, Kim is happy to learn she missed out on game night with her cousin Larry, a geek she does not get along with. Later, she is recruited to help archaeologist Monty Fiske retrieve an ancient monkey idol from an ancient site protected with an [[ShoutOut Indiana-Jonesesque]] series of {{death trap}}s. While Ron suspects Fiske is "500 miles of bad road," Kim chalks up his suspicion to his dislike of monkeys, and completes the task. Unfortunately, the idol is then stolen by a mysterious ninja.

Unknown to Kim, the ninja was Fiske himself, a master of "Tai Shing Pek War" (Monkey Kung-Fu) who wanted the statue, as it was one of four that would grant him "mystic monkey power." Meanwhile, after game night is rescheduled, Kim laments over having to spend time with Larry, until Wade unveils his new invention the "holo-Kim" which would allow her to skip the game night. After learning more about the statue, Kim decides to pay a visit to Fiske in hopes that he'll help them, while the holo-Kim is dispatched to entertain Larry.

When Kim & Ron arrive, however, Fiske suspects them of knowing of his involvement in the theft and, now calling himself Monkey Fist, decides to destroy them. Ron then learns the Kim with him is the hologram while the real one is with Larry and makes a break for it. Back at Larry's Kim learns of Fiske's obsession with monkey kung-fu from Larry and realizes Ron is in danger; using the Kimmunicator, Larry reminds Ron of a clue from the game ''Fortress'' ("to defeat the Cloud Guardian, you must drink from his enchanted pool"). Realizing what that means, Ron exposes himself to mystic monkey power and defeats the sinister simian. Later, Kim tells both guys how proud she is of them, before leaving them alone to their geeky activities.
